Hi all! We just booked this cruise and we are super excited! This will be our second cruise

Hoping to get to know some of you before cruise day!

We will be myself Susie(34) DH Billy(34) DS Alex(9) DS Dylan(6) DD Emma(3) We are booked in room 8010.

I look forward to meeting you all!

[JLDSMD]

We're in. Just hope now that DS's school schedule is what we think it will be (2 days off the first week of March).

It will be me (Jeff), DW (Suz), and DS14.

This will be our 12th DCL cruise, but we still hold one prior to this that we haven't moved yet, so maybe it will be 13. This will be our 4th Western. We did a Western last summer and it was our first time to Costa Maya and we loved it. Can't wait to get back.

[yayasue]

Welcome Jeff! Wow that's alot of cruises! This will be our second cruise.

We are lucky that we got a good price and that it's our kids spring break. Happy for that!

I will add you to roll call

[thepoohguy]

We are in too! This will be our 2nd Disney Cruise, first on the Fantasy.

It will be myself, Paul and my DW, Robin.

No kids. Celebrating our 15th anniversary!

We are going to WDW in March as well! We are surprising our kids with a trip. We are going for their spring break.

You trip sounds like an awesome one. Seeing both Disney's. Your kids must be thrilled?

We are going to Disneyland in May (just got back from a weekend there too) then to the D23 Convention in August (for our anniversary), then Disney World in September, and back to Disneyland for the holidays (my favorite time to visit since it is magical)...hopefully all of that will make the cruise arrive quickly!!!

[thepoohguy]

LOL! We don't have any kids!

When is their Spring Break? My guess is not the first week of March.

Yes it is here, not sure if it's like that everywhere in Canada but in Quebec yes. It's always been the first week of March.
